This handout illustration released by U.S. National Science Foundation on September 27, 2023, shows an anti-matter gravity experiment ALPHA-g at an undisclosed location. For the first time, scientists have observed antimatter particles -- the mysteriously absent twins of the visible matter all around us -- falling downwards due to the effect of gravity, Europe’s physics lab CERN announced on September 27, 2023. Though most physicists anticipated this result, the experiment was hailed as “huge milestone” that definitively rules out that gravity repels antimatter upwards -- a finding that would have upended our most fundamental understanding of the universe.
